I Can Do This Poem by Florence Badejo

Damn, this is harder than I thought
The outside is fine but inside is a whirlwind
I can restrict my actions and my words
But the feeling has a mind of it's own
I can't stop it, it feels to good
I won't impose it on you though
I'll keep to my unspoken promise
Even if I didn't tell you it yet
I'll do my best for you to feel happy
My personal affairs don't matter to me much
They never have and may never will
But that is not at issue here
I simply need to find a way
To make my insides calm each day
I'm sorry for not telling you all these things
But I think I can do this
